The Anasazi had a huge sense of humor. Those first two pictures prove it

My bad, wrong thread lol.

I did see a jeep winch another jeep out.

Now the jeep with the winch just stayed stationary and was not attached to anything special. Very interesting to see.

Oh wow 13 and 15 PSI...

Hell the lowest I've been was only 25... is that unsafe? I do not have beadlock.

You’ve got a Raptor. You need the quick deflators and portable air to make it less dramatic. Can you traverse OBX with low pressure? Sure, stick to the beach road at 25 and you won’t overheat the tires. don’t get out on the 50-60mph stretches for long drives.

Or just air up when you’re done. Easy Peasey.
It does make a diff; NPS makes a huge deal out of it and I started at 22, then 20, 18 and honestly I felt like that was pretty good traction. I’ve not tested lower than...17 I think. Of course, sure, I’ve had 4x4’s previously, but they were just trucks with 4wd. The Rap is far more serious and capable.
The tires are -part- of the suspension system here.

When I cruised Hatteras ramps at 18 ps instead of 22, big difference in compliance and as a result, forward momentum.

FWIW, my SxS runs 13-14psi.

I do recoveries every other weekend in the dunes we just use a kinetic rope and soft shackles on the factory tow hooks both front and rear.

@smurfslayer I'll have you know Sir, that I do have the fast deflator thing and its amazing and the awesome other reinflator thing. And what do you mean overheat the tires, I got a ticket the last time I hit 50+mph on a beach with literally no one on it. I stay under 30 now...sadly.

@SigmaPrism Post up the kinetic rope from amazon and shackles.
